  1. This table reports the selection criteria of the best vine decomposition for two sets of exchange rate returns. The G7 basket includes the Bitcoin and the G7 currency returns, and the BRICS basket includes the Bitcoin and the BRICS currency returns. For both G7 and BRICS baskets, the R-vine copula is the best choice. The reported log-likelihoods refer to the dependence structures excluding the marginals
